Although the Z28 is more 'catered' with warrenty and the 'this is how i want it get it to me' ordership, which already has proven strong-but most of us already bought one and cant afford a trade so soon, or another one in the driveway. what if the, dare say, the new Z28, has a MyStErY motor?? ooooooo. Perhaps they want to take on the Taurus with a twin turbo V6? Food for thought?

I think you're totally right on that. I'll tell you, though, that for me, I'd take a 450 RWHP OEM Z28 from GM (and add a pulley and some bolt-ons) opposed to a 500 RWHP tuner-SS because I know Z28 has a powerplant that's been through Hell and back. You're right, though, IMHO, because I don't know how many others would feel the same. Great point.
As long as the MyStErY motor has 8-cylinders, I won't complain, lol

Okay, I won't complain as long as it has the performance. I need a big V8 though
